Job description

Are you an exceptional Personal Assistant ready to support three dynamic and dedicated directors at Great Ormond Street Hospital Children's Charity?

Bring your efficiency, proactive mindset, and passion for making a difference to our team. Join us now and be part of our mission of transforming the lives of seriously ill children.

Role Overview

Each day would be different for you in the role. You will be the first point of contact for some of the Directors, while others will need less day-to-day support but will call on you for specific tasks and projects.

Typically, you will be managing diaries and mailboxes, ensuring rooms are booked for meetings, and generally being the Director’s right-hand person offering admin and organisational support. Additionally, you will be supporting on larger pieces of work and projects around Finance, Brand, and Tech that will be defined as you settle into the role.

About You

We’re looking for an experienced Personal Assistant who:

• Is confident with making decisions and dealing with people from across the organisation.
• Is organised and has excellent attention to detail and communication skills – the Directors will trust you to send emails on their behalf and represent them with their teams and across the organisation.
• Has a flexible approach to each day and has experience of managing conflicting schedules and workloads.
• Is committed to working with GOSH Charity’s values and being an ambassador for these.

About the Team

You will be working right at the heart of the organisation in the Chief Executive's Office, joining a team that supports the organisation to perform at its very best.

You will be line managed by the Senior Manager, CEO Office and Strategic Projects, but will develop close working relationships with each of the Directors, their teams, key stakeholders, and the PA to the Chief Executive and PA to the Fundraising Director.

What we can offer you

• 30 days annual leave (plus bank holidays).
• A flexible approach to working arrangements.
• Access to our enhanced pension scheme.
• Life assurance.
• Access to various health and wellbeing schemes, including the employee assistance programme.

About The Charity

Every day brings new challenges at Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH). Every day, over 750 seriously ill children from across the UK arrive for life-changing treatments. Every day, young lives hang in the balance as patients, families, and staff battle the most complex illnesses. And every day, the brightest minds come together to achieve pioneering medical breakthroughs that change the lives of thousands of children – and change the world. This extraordinary hospital has always depended on charitable support to give seriously ill children the best chance to fulfil their potential. Without donations, Great Ormond Street Hospital Charity can’t help fund ground-breaking research, advanced equipment, child and family support services, and the rebuilding and refurbishment of wards and medical facilities. Our staff help to raise these vital funds for the hospital. A better future for seriously ill children starts with you.

Along with being awarded the ‘Sunday Times Best Places to Work 2023’, we were delighted to be recently awarded the Charity Times Fundraising Team of the Year 2023.

A more diverse workforce will enable us to deliver even more impact and we particularly encourage applications from communities which are under-represented in the charity. This includes people from ethnically diverse backgrounds, disabled people or those with long-term conditions, LGBTQ+ communities, and those from less advantaged socioeconomic backgrounds.
